Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Rome real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Recent trends show Rome standing out from the rest of Peoria County, with a typical home value of $259,000 compared to the county’s $150,000. While the county’s typical value is projected to edge down to $149,000, Rome’s is expected to rise to about $326,000, highlighting a stronger local price environment.
In March 2026, listings in Rome had a median list price of $159,900 and spent a median of 136 days on the market. Conditions still favor sellers, with only 3 homes in inventory, 3 new listings, and a low 1.5 months of supply keeping options limited for buyers.
Looking ahead to April 2026, the projected median list price is $189,900 with inventory holding steady at 3 homes, signaling continued tight supply alongside higher asking prices. With roughly half of recent sales closing above list price and an average sale-to-list ratio near 1.03, both buyers and sellers in Rome can benefit from partnering with Agent Pronto to find an agent who understands these dynamics and can guide them through the process.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
